Last Embryo Volume 6 Chapter 6 Part 1
CHAPTER 6
The fiery-red sky was reminiscent of the moment of sun’s dawn.
The sounds and shockwaves of lava and rocks that were being continuously spilled from the volcano sounded as if someone was firing massive cannonballs out of it many times, one after the other, and every time they hit the ground, it was as if the earth, which was supposed to withstand that kind of impact trembled in fear along with the sky covered with dust and ash-colored clouds, almost as if both of these things were afraid of the upcoming changes that the explosion of the volcano was bound to bring with itself in the coming hours.
Even though the sky was way higher than the top of the volcano, it still looked as if the rocks that have been ejected out of it were going to pierce through it, only to then fall back onto the ground like a meteor shower. The ones that fell far from the volcano ended up creating small craters and destroying everything that was in their nearest vicinity, and the ones that ended up falling onto the side of the volcano itself and the nearest mountains caused massive avalanches and landslides that made their way towards the ground below, burying anyone and everything on their path under the raging mass of earth and stone.
At the same time as all of that was happening, other things such as gas, steam, stones and clusters of lava and molten soil were being pushed upward from the depths of the earth by the force of the eruption, and once they have been ejected outside of the volcano they slowly crawled down from the very top of it along the slope of the mountain as if they were living things with a mind of their own, swallowing up trees, grass and all sorts of living things both big and small that lived their throughout their deadly descent. As it gradually gained speed, it eventually was going down so fast that the four-legged beasts could not escape from it even when they were desperately running with everything they had, and all of the birds and winged creatures were being shot down from the sky one after another. Such was the power of the pyroclastic liquid that burned spew forward like blood from an open wound everything around it to ashes as it continued to flow and the shrapnel-like rocks that were falling down from the sky like a deadly rain on nature-made shotgun shells.
Due to the fires that continued to engulf everything around them, the scenery that was once filled with vibrant colors and lush greenery has been covered completely with magma and volcanic ash, transforming everything into a desolate wasteland where no creature could ever hope to live again. The light of the sun has also been blocked in its entirety, as a result of which the entire Lost Continent of Atlantis has been besieged by darkness do dark as if it was the middle of the night, even though it should have been noon at worst.
This eruption, this rain of fiery death, there is one thing that it is reminiscent of: the end of the world. And in the middle of all of that, suddenly, a pillar of light shot towards the sky from the volcano’s depths, and made its way high above the skies of Little Garden. It was a brilliant and unrivalled power that could mow down stars and celestial bodies, given to those who would be entrusted with guiding the next generation of mankind.
And now, such power was in the hands of a personification of the mythological scourge of mankind, a monster who desired nothing but death to those whom he deemed unworthy of the position of primates within the world’s food chain. He is the pillar who bears the crown of the stars on his head, born of Gaia, Celestial Star Spirit of the Blue Star. A two-digit Demon Lord, known throughout Little Garden as the strongest of the Greek Demon Lords: Demon Lord Typhon. He is a Demon Lord and a God Slayer, who reins over the Lost Continent of Atlantis, which is his own flesh and blood.
(. . . Ahhh, it looks like we messed up.)
They will not make it in time. There is nothing that they can do to stop this power.
Another Cosmology . . . . it can be said that those who obtained it are capable of holding literary the entire world as a weapon they can use however they see fit, because it is a Cosmology observed from both the mystical and material planes of the world at the same time. That is why when somebody is capable of molding that Cosmology into a tool or a weapon that they envisioned, there is nothing and no one in the entire universe that would be able to withstand coming into direct contact with a torrent of such raw power.
They can also manifest themselves in a number of shapes or forms: be it as a set of mythical armor that can protect its user from any and all harm, causing them to become a warrior that would stand at the top of the world when it comes to defensive power, or spells or techniques that would allow their user to conquer the world with ease, and the reason why they can do all of that is pretty simple: because when it comes down to it, they are one of the elements that make up the world as we know it, and although reaching the level where the world itself can be turned into your personal weapon is not an easy achievement by any means, those who manage to achieve that level of its mastery would have every right to consider themselves truly invincible.
Also, overall, it can be said that Another Cosmology can only be used in Little Garden. If it were to be use anywhere in the Outer World, which is not suited to withstanding such power, then the entire world would have been erased from existence in an instant not because of the effects of Another Cosmology, but just from the sheer force of it being activated.
But even so, even if they knew that there was nothing they could possibly to against this kind of raw power, none of the heroes who stood before it chose to give in to despair, and instead, the all raised their fighting spirits to the maximum.
「Everyone, please. . . . . . . . . it might be but a brief moment, but just. . . . . . . just buy me some time!」
Brandishing her {Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi}, Kudou Asuka started running forward. In this seemingly hopeless situation, her Holy Sword was the only thing that could possibly save them all from death at the hands of 『The Youngest Child of Gaia』 .
Kasukabe You also refused to just stand and do nothing, and so she took out The Wand of Quetzalcoatl and raised its output to maximum possible firepower.
Kudou Ayato spoke a silent prayer to her beloved segmented sword, Serpens Scorpius, and swung it towards their enemy.
Jin Russel, who was acting on behalf of the entirety of {Avatara}, said his own prayer while entrusting every sliver of hope he had left to the arrow that he notched onto the Divine Bow that he had kept in case of dire emergencies. If there was ever a time for him to be using it, that moment has definitely come right now.
And as for Heracles. . . . he unleashed the Sun Authority that he has reclaimed after relinquishing it at the moment when Krishna was trying to possess him roared with a voice so ferocious that it shook their entire surroundings.
「O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !」
He then combined the Star Ship that he summoned through the Sun Authority of Aries with the divine bowstring of the Sun Authority of Sagittarious, and launched 「The Argo」, one of the most famous ships in the entire Greek Mythology, as if it was an arrow, sending it towards Typhon alongside Kasukabe You’s fire of Venus Dragon and Jin Russel’s divine arrow. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . but no matter how many powerful attacks they tried to unleash against Typhon at the same time, it will all be for naught, because there is nothing in this world that could possibly exceed Another Cosmology in terms of conceptual quantity of its mass.
